UK Lockdown (3) day 174, WANTED. - a photo on Flickriver

In 1874 Pinkerton Creates First Photographic Wanted Poster:
For the “Abduction of Charlie Brewster Ross,” announced a wanted poster created in 1874, and handed out to people in the Philadelphia area. Two young boys had been kidnapped from their wealthy family. The older of the two boys was later found on the street, where the kidnappers had abandoned him.

Charles Brewster "Charley" Ross (born May 4, 1870 – disappeared July 1, 1874) was the primary victim of the first American kidnapping for ransom to receive widespread media coverage. His fate remains unknown, and his case is one of the most famous disappearances in U.S. history.

Historically, some wanted posters offering a reward contained the phrase "dead or alive". Thus one would get a reward for either bringing the person or his body to the authorities. This could indicate that the person was an outlaw, and that it was permissible to kill him. Alternatively, it might mean that it was permissible to kill him if he resisted arrest. While most issuers of wanted posters instead preferred the target to be taken alive in order to stand trial, some private organizations were willing to go to these extreme measures to protect their interests.
